This study found that AP-2α and AP-2β transcription factors are crucial for maintaining adult skin homeostasis, with their inactivation in keratinocytes leading to impaired differentiation, hair abnormalities, and inflammation, highlighting their key regulatory roles.

This article reviews the genetic foundations of keratins in maintaining epithelial tissue integrity and links specific keratin variants to diverse ichthyosis forms, without presenting new clinical findings.

In this study, researchers used single-cell RNA sequencing to identify seven cell types, including distinct steroidogenic and immune cells, in the tumor microenvironment of a case of ovarian SCT-NOS, providing insights into its cellular heterogeneity and molecular mechanisms related to hyperandrogenism.

This study found that chemically induced skin tumors in mice predominantly originated from Lgr6 + and/or Lrig1 + stem cells of the upper hair follicle rather than from other stem cell populations.

This study found that CD200-negative human hair follicle bulge cells have a higher hair-regenerative capability compared to CD200-positive cells, suggesting that reduced CD200 expression may enhance hair regeneration, providing insights for improving bulge cell-based hair restoration techniques.

This study investigated human hair follicle bulge cells and found that those with reduced CD200 expression exhibited enhanced hair regenerative capability, refining the functional understanding of bulge cell heterogeneity and providing insights for optimizing bulge cell–based hair regeneration techniques.

This study found that Pinus massoniana needles extract may promote hair regrowth in a mouse model of androgenetic alopecia, potentially by reducing oxidative stress and affecting immune, metabolic, and apoptosis-related pathways.

This study mapped a detailed genetic profile of goat hair follicle apoptosis, identifying key genes and regulatory factors involved in the hair cycle, offering new insights into programmed cell death.

Scarring alopecia involves increased immune cells and specific gene changes near damaged hair follicles.

This study identified 4,942 differentially expressed genes between Jiangnan cashmere goats and Changthangi pashmina goats, enriching pathways like PI3K-Akt and thermogenesis, which may influence cashmere fiber quality, offering insights for their genetic improvement.

This study identified 4,942 differentially expressed genes and key candidate genes involved in the hair follicle development and cashmere quality differences between Jiangnan and Changthangi goats, highlighting potential molecular targets for genetic improvement of cashmere goats.

This article presents a case of a seventeen-year-old female with dermatopathia pigmentosa reticularis and emphasizes the importance of distinguishing its clinical features from other similar disorders, supported by dermoscopic and histopathological findings.

In this study, researchers observed that mutant mice with a genetic hair loss condition exhibited significant differential expression of genes related to keratinization and hair follicle formation, providing insights into potential strategies for understanding and treating alopecia.

In this study, researchers observed that spontaneously mutated mice with a hair loss phenotype exhibited significant differential expression of genes related to keratinization and hair follicle formation, suggesting these mice could model human alopecia for future research and treatment development.

A specific hair protein variant increases the spread of breast cancer and is linked to worse survival rates.

This study found that TLR3 activation in human keratinocytes enhances exosome biosynthesis and expression of hair follicle stem cell markers, suggesting a potential mechanism for tissue regeneration.

This study found that DermaCult™ Keratinocyte Expansion Medium allows for significantly extended growth of human epidermal keratinocytes while maintaining their differentiation potential.

This case study of a 45-year-old man from Tonga describes the identification of pachyonychia congenita through genetic testing, revealing a mutation in the keratin gene KRT16, associated with chronic painful skin and nail conditions.

This study found that using human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) carrying the causal mutation of Epidermolysis Bullosa simplex provides a robust model for understanding its molecular mechanisms and testing potential therapeutic targets.

This study found that in a mouse model of Focal Dermal Hypoplasia, treatment with lithium carbonate improved skin disease symptoms compared to controls, though disease severity varied and posed interpretation challenges.

This study identified that dominant mutations in the KLHL24 gene cause epidermolysis bullosa through dysregulated autoubiquitination, leading to excessive degradation of keratin 14.

The researchers reported that iPSCs derived from Sendai virus reprogrammed blood cells can mature into functional keratinocytes for up to 60 days, potentially offering new approaches for DEB treatment.

This study found that adult dermal papilla cells guided high-passage adult keratinocytes to produce new hair fibers, suggesting potential for large-scale hair follicle bioengineering.

This study observed that while X-ray radiation did not alter major hair keratin composition in mice, it decreased hair follicle stem cell markers and increased Krt5, suggesting potential as a radiation biomarker.

The researchers reported that stress-induced keratins in human skin are expressed at lower levels than those in healthy skin and are co-regulated with genes involved in differentiation, inflammation, and immunity, rather than replacing keratins of normal differentiation or indicating cell proliferation.

This report describes two Saudi brothers with dermatopathia pigmentosa reticularis who exhibited normal hair shafts despite their condition.

This study found that the Bsk phenotype in mice did not result from a recombination event between specific keratin genes, leaving the gene linked to this mutation unidentified.

This study categorizes the human fetal vaginal epithelium into four areas with distinct transcriptomic profiles, aiding potential advancements in vaginal reconstruction and drug delivery.

In this study, researchers used patient-derived organoids to model metastasis in colorectal cancer and discovered that cancer cells temporarily switch to a wound-healing program, orchestrated by reduced EZH2 activity and YAP signaling, before spreading to new organs.

This study observed that Bmi1+ central corneal progenitor cells do not contribute to wound healing in mice, which instead rely on epithelial cell rearrangement and migration to close abrasions.
